A Land of Lincoln Thanksgiving - A Land of Lincoln Story

Joshua struggles with painful memories and emotions when he is invited to his family’s Thanksgiving celebration.  His boyfriend Marcus steps in to help him through what promises to be an emotional day as they both peel back another layer of their own childhood trauma and learn that they do, in fact, have many things to be thankful for.  

Note: Joshua and Marcus first appeared in We Hold These Truths to be Self-Evident.  Many familiar characters from that story as well as Kept Boy to Made Man will make appearances.  This story will reveal hints to many character’s futures.

This story stars two adult men with challenging pasts who love each other.  Mature audiences only.  Reader discretion is advised.

Another short story featuring Joshua, a 30 something gay man who has only recently admitted to himself and a few select others that he is gay. The catalyst for this momentous event, a chance meeting with another man, Marcus, in an environment totally alien to Joshua, a chance meeting which has led to love with Marcus, who like Joshua comes to the relationship saddled with a great deal of baggage.

We learn a little more of Joshua's life before he left his parents home to forge his own way in life. An unhappy childhood shaped the man he has become, and to his credit it has not left him embittered.

Another 5 star experience from the pen of @empath, an author so aptly named. His empathy for his characters, particularly those who have been emotionally damaged, is a revelation to witness.

Response from the author:

Thanks for reading @Summerabbacat!  It’s always good to hear your thoughts and kind words!
